I have one brought as i needed a cheap boat quickly,if you ask your local model shop to change the props to run quicker an more quiet costs around a tenner,glue the led lights in on the back of the boat, its well worth the money im happy with mine.

 

ive done 4 day sessions and hammerd the boat on 1 charge the batteries last forever.

 

you can use pva as water wont get in the hoppers.

 

i timed mine to drop a bait 180yds and get the boat back takes 6 mins but thats with a prop change.

 

retractable hoppers and the boat lights up very well at nite the best ive seen yet for nite visability.
